Amy Wendland

Amy K. Wendland earned her BFA in Illustration from Rhode Island School of Design, and worked commercially as an artist and designer. Her work ranged from book covers and advertisements to logo designs and museum exhibit drawings. After almost 10 years of freelancing, Amy returned to school to receive an MA in Sculpture and an MFA in Graphics from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. Her artwork typically utilizes a combination of humor, offbeat materials and obsessive craft. Reviewers have described Amy’s sculptures as “creepy and inventive” and “immaculate, beautifully crafted objects with a ‘fetish finish’ and characteristic intellectual playfulness.” Amy’s drawings, sculptures and artist’s books have been exhibited nationally, most recently in Florida, Iowa, Arkansas, New Mexico, Ohio and Colorado.
